The holiday home, whose interior was designed by Aleksandra Wieczorek, is a space where colour, form and texture work in harmony. The design is based on bold combinations, yet nothing here is left to chance. Elements that might seem unconventional have been combined with a keen sense of style, creating an interior full of energy, yet calm and consistent in its overall feel. It is a space that comes alive through light, materials and subtle references to the coastal surroundings.
The starting point was a sand-coloured travertine floor laid in a classic Roman pattern. This stone runs throughout the house – including the bedroom – lending it a Mediterranean character. It was the travertine that initiated the dialogue between Polish craftsmanship and Italian elegance. The result is a space where natural materials meet a passion for form, and local accents harmonise with southern lightness.
In the living area, the wave motif on the mirror catches the eye, subtly evoking the nearby sea. The organic lines of the armchairs resemble stones smoothed by water, whilst their soft curves break up the geometry of the stone floor. Colour has been introduced here with a delicate touch: it is present but does not dominate, creating an atmosphere of joy and freedom. Modern design is combined here with elements that reference the English style, yet modern technologies have not been overlooked. The Serif television, with its distinctive legs, makes an interesting statement in the living area.
The kitchen has been designed so as not to dominate the space. The units take the form of an elegant chest of drawers, making it resemble a piece of furniture rather than a traditional kitchen. Blending into the living room, it becomes a natural extension of it. This solution emphasises the relaxed, holiday-like character of the home, where the boundaries between functions are blurred in the name of comfort.
Details play an important role – those that are only discovered during everyday use. Porcelain electrical fittings, sculptural door handles, carefully selected knobs and textures. A particular highlight is the staircase leading to the first floor. The marble steps are the only part retained from before the renovation, whilst the balustrade was made to order. Metal, curved, inspired by Art Deco aesthetics, with patinated details in the form of small circles, it creates a striking composition. It is accompanied by a large-format painting by Giza Kwiecień, which adds character to the space.
Upstairs, the house takes on a more intimate character. The bedroom is decorated in warm shades of orange and green, creating an atmosphere conducive to rest. Green becomes the leitmotif of this floor – it also appears in the study, where a sea-blue shade dominates the built-in furniture, and in the bathroom finished with three-dimensional tiles featuring a distinctive texture.
The final room is a small guest room – patterned, slightly boudoir-like, and full of humour. Despite its compact size, it accommodates a functional wardrobe, a sofa bed and a console table that serves as a desk. Decorative motifs of palm trees, flowers and feathers lend it a lightness and an exotic character, creating a welcoming space for visitors.
The most surprising feature of the house is the so-called powder room, a small guest bathroom. We enter it, passing playful little monkeys hidden in the decorative details. The interior is filled with deep, oceanic blues, creating an intense, impressive effect. It is a space designed with a touch of whimsy, yet one that encapsulates the entire project: bold, joyful, full of character and thoughtfully composed.
